Hyundai i-flow Concept Diesel Hybrid Sports Cars
March 9, 2010 – 10:50 amWe are witnessing the emerging of the new generation of cars.
The new Hyundai i-flow is a powerful car concept with an imaginative and magic exterior, wise engineering under the hood and in the unbelievable beautiful car interior.
At the 2010 Geneva motor show debut, Hyundai i-flow gets the silence and wonder from the present press and spectators.
New Hyundai i-flow is a technological wonder with an animal shape. The car is standing still but the spectator had a feeling that the i-flow will jump ahead in any moment. It is like a big predator ready to wake up and jump on his pray.
The interior of Hyundai i-flow is like a space ship. During the development a help from the BASF which is one of the leading automotive suppliers and expert in new space edge materials.
New Hyundai i-flow is a diesel electric hybrid with a fuel consumption of only 3 liters per 100 kilometers. If we have in mind that i-flow is a car with an overall length of 4.78 meters and 2.8 meters of wheel base this result is amazing. With i-flow, Hyundai is bringing a new quality and set up a new hard to reach standards in the European D-segment. The width of the car is 1.85 meters and height is 1.42 meters.
The engine of this sporty sedan is a diesel electric hybrid. The U2 1.7 liter oil burner is packed with two stage turbocharger and Hyundai lithium ion-polymer battery. Transmission is a dual-clutch with 6 speed gear. The CO2 output is only 85g/km and the fuel consumption is 1 liter on 33.3 km.
My overall impression is that Hyundai just made a quantum leap in the automotive technology. The competition will need to work hard night and day to get near where Hyundai is now. We do not need to be automotive experts or prophets to see the new bright future for the Hyundai Motor Corporation. The whole article seams to be completely purposeless because the Hyundai i-flow photos say all.
